I have been accepted to the BSN-DNP program. I plan to get the AGACNP. Does anyone know if it is feasible to go full time while working full time? Someone told me it was, but someone also told me the online program has more work that must be done. I have a lot of contacts so I'm not worried about setting up preceptors. Any thoughts?
